Family photos are a chance to capture special memories, but let’s be honest—kids don’t always share the same excitement for the camera. That’s okay! With the right approach (and maybe a snack or two), we can make your family photo session fun, relaxed, and even enjoyable for everyone.
And here’s the best part: When you book a family session this April, you’ll get a $50 print credit to turn your favorite moments into beautiful, tangible memories. Let’s make this spring special in every way.
1. Keep It Light and Playful
Kids thrive when they’re having fun, so let’s keep the session lighthearted! Whether they’re running, playing, or showing off their silliest faces, these moments create the most authentic smiles.
2. Bring a Favorite Toy or Prop
Familiar items like a favorite stuffed animal, toy, or even a soccer ball can help kids feel comfortable. These props can also add a personal touch to your photos while keeping little ones happily engaged.
3. Snacks Save the Day
A little snack can go a long way in keeping kids happy and cooperative. Choose something mess-free (think crackers or fruit snacks) to prevent wardrobe mishaps, and consider a sweet treat as a post-session reward!
4. Timing is Key
Pick a session time when your kids are usually at their best. Mornings after breakfast or early evenings work well for many families. Avoid scheduling during nap times or meal times to keep moods positive.
5. Dress for Comfort
Stylish outfits are great, but comfort is just as important. Avoid anything too itchy, stiff, or tight—if your kids feel good in what they’re wearing, they’ll be happier in front of the camera.
6. Embrace the Chaos
Let’s be honest—kids don’t always stick to the plan. That’s the beauty of family photos. Some of the best shots happen during unplanned moments of laughter or play. These little bursts of chaos are what make your family’s story unique.
Why Now is the Perfect Time
Spring is the season for fresh starts and blooming memories, and it’s the perfect time to update your family photos. Plus, when you book a family session in April, you’ll get a $50 print credit to use on albums, wall art, or framed prints.
